Release that Witch Chapter 522: Surge of northern region

...

"What did you say!?"

Eternal Night City feudal lord, Northern Lands Duke Calvin Kant stood up in disbelief, looking at the messenger in front of him. The water glass on the table knocked to the ground and made a crisp crackling sound.

"Master Duke, this is what I saw with my own eyes!" The latter buried his head a bit lower, "rebel King broke the wall of Kingdom Capital in only one day, His Majesty The King also failed to escape, I am afraid I have already More fierce than evil! "

"This ... how is that possible?" Calvin murmured, "That's Kingdom Capital!"

The five-foot-tall bluestone city wall, thousands of people's garrison, as well as a stone thrower and snow powder. There are no teams of 20,000 or 30,000. Don't even think about crossing this line of defense. And even if Fourth Prince can gather so many people, it should not capture Kingdom Capital within one day!

"They ... their firearms are too powerful," the messenger's voice trembled a little, not knowing whether it was physical weakness caused by rushing through the night, or shocked by everything he witnessed. "Not only can it be fired continuously, the power is amazing, Not to mention Knight, even the King's mad guard can't stop them from going forward, as long as they are next to each other, even if they have not died, they have basically gone for half their lives ... In contrast, Your Majesty's firearms are no different from burning fire sticks. "

Calvin is blank in my mind, there is only one thought in my heart, it is over, everything is over.

I received an order from new King more than a week ago asking him to send a unit to support Kingdom Capital. As the newly registered Northern Lands Duke, he naturally had to respond. After some discussion, Calvin finally transferred a team of 2,500 people from the horse head Hawse, Xuehu Lesta, and his own family. After the snow has set off, the departure King is expected to arrive almost halfway between the arrival time and the letter of help. Months, but considering that siege battles often last for months, it is not too late.

Since the spring plowing is about to start, there are not many serfs in the team, and Knight is very few. Most of them are mercenaries and freemen. However, as long as the team is dispatched, it must be a treason in the eyes of rebel King. His good life It will soon be over.

Yes, and Edith! Calvin suddenly thought of his baby girl, if it was her, maybe there was any way to save it.

"Come on, call the eldest daughter to my room!" he shouted to the guard next to him.

Soon, Edith, who was dressed in casual clothes, walked into the study. She was wearing a training sabre on her side, her hair was curled up on her head, and fine sweat beads were exuding on the tip of her nose. Apparently she was practicing Swordsmanship as usual, with a little hesitation on her face, "Did I not say that? Don't disturb me while practicing the sword."

"This time is different, the family will be in great trouble!" Calvin eagerly repeated the message brought back by the messenger, "What shall we do now?"

He looked at his daughter earnestly, hoping that she could give a solution. If Northern Lands is rich in Pearl, then Edith Kant is the brightest one. Not only is she beautiful, but she is also extremely talented, which eclipses other men, both in politics and in marching. It can be said that the Kant family can climb from the position of Earl to today's Northern Lands Duke, and Edith is indispensable.

My daughter showed a little surprise when she heard that Fourth Prince conquered Kingdom Capital a day, and then she calmed down again. "Now you know why I didn't agree to marry Timothy at that time, right?"

Calvin couldn't help but widen its eyes. "Did you expect all this at the time?" Timothy led the army to defeat Esse Duke, who had intended to rebel, and stayed in Northern Lands for a while. Like most men, he also liked the pearl of Northern Lands, but Edith did not immediately respond to the party, but instead used the excuse to cleverly evade the envoy dispatched by the other party. At that time, I was quite puzzled. I even blame my daughter for knowing that it was Queen to marry. This is how many women dream of, and the Kant family can naturally sit more securely in the Northern Lands seat.

"You said you broke the city one day? That's not true," Edith untied the girdle and tilted the long blue hair above his head. "I just don't think he's the right person."

No ... Suitable, Calvin can't help moaning in his heart, he is the ruler of Greycastle! Even short-lived, it is a real king! Even such a person is not suitable. What kind of person do you want to marry Ah?? But the words Duke have not been said. He has already made up his mind. If his daughter never marries, he will pass Duke. To Edith, he believed that, compared to his two sons, the eldest daughter was the best successor to carry forward the family.

"Back to this," Edith stooped to pick up the porcelain cup that was broken on the ground, "the first thing you have to do is to recover the troops sent out."

"But they have been set off for four days, and they don't know which way to go, I'm afraid it's too late ..."

"Anyway," she fiddled the pieces into the shape of the three cities. "You send someone to Quiet Valley Town first, and now set off will arrive in the evening, and then take a boat to Kingdom Capital tomorrow morning, so you should be able to arrive one day earlier than the army. No matter which way the army goes, they will eventually converge on this official road in the North Gate, and they can stop them on the outskirts of Kingdom Capital as long as they search backwards.

"So that's it," Damn, this method should be able to think of it yourself, Duke patted his head hard, all blamed that the news came too suddenly, he couldn't get back to it for a while, "I write a letter now! No , Let personal guard take the token directly! Come! "

After personal guard was ordered to leave, Edith continued to say slowly, "Father, do you think we can block Fourth Prince's attack?"

Calvin can't help shuddering. The outer wall of the Eternal Night City is not as solid as half of the Kingdom Capital. I am afraid that in the face of that kind of fire-like weapon, I can't hold it for a long time. "I don't think ..."

“So it ’s not enough to just recall the army,” she shrugged. “Do n’t forget that you only attached Timothy to become Duke. In the eyes of Roland, I ’m afraid it ’s no different from the enemy. Even if he does n’t come now, he will always It will come. So to keep the family going, we must do more and be more proactive. "

"What do you mean ... Let me turn my head to the four His Highness the Prince allegiance?" Calvin hesitated, "Why does he believe me?"

"In good faith," Edith whispered, "After the results of this siege battle spread, I'm afraid that most of noble will be timid. Since it is impossible to resist together, it is better to admit defeat early. Of course, think so It ’s estimated that I ’m not the only one, so I have to show sincerity, or how can I stand out among many noble? ”

"What kind of ... sincerity?"

Edith smiled and pulled out the training wooden sword with one hand. Before Calvin responded, Lightning hit two of the three pieces on the desktop into powder.

"I think Hawse Family and Lesta Family are good gifts. What do you say, father?" (To be continued., Your support is my greatest motivation.) 17-01-0805: 34: 24
